HINGE PIN

Replacing worn hardware helps assemblies stay tight, reducing rattles and misalignment. If your repair calls for Hinge Pin, use part number 02-3278-01 to match the listing and avoid mismatches. Depending on placement, failure may show up as loose parts, intermittent operation, noise, or a cycle that won’t complete normally. After replacement, run the machine long enough to observe normal behavior and recheck for leaks or loose fasteners. If the listing provides compatibility tools, verify fitment before checkout to avoid avoidable downtime. If the machine was down for a while, take the opportunity to clean the area around the repair. Double-check surrounding clamps and mounts so the new part isn’t stressed by misalignment. A quick visual after the first cycle can catch small leaks before they become a mess.
